My computer has been randomly waking up from sleep, and I still haven't been able to figure out what could be causing it. Sometimes it goes back to sleep after 30~ seconds and other times it stays on indefinitely. I've checked the power settings and the WOL settings in the bios and I've yet to find anything which could be causing the power ups.... 

 

What else could it be?

check your usb hardware such as mouse and keyboard, make sure they're not set to "allow this device to wake the computer" go into computer mangement and then into device manager, right click on the hardware, click properties and find the power management tab.
